Luke managed to get April back to her mother with no further incident and without showing any signs of the stroke he was sure he was having. After pacing the length of his apartment an innumerable amount of times, he decided he needed a distraction. Something, anything to take his mind off what he had just heard. Unfortunately, Luke wasn't in any state to think clearly, which explains how he ended up at Liz and TJ's.

Liz is rocking in a chair in what is to be the baby's room watching Luke intently as he struggles to put their crib together. "And you're sure they're getting married?" She asks him clarifying. She just can't see Lorelai marrying anyone but her brother.

TJ who is working on the dresser pipes up. "We've just opened Pandora's box."

"Yeah, I don't know. That's what I heard." Luke answers, ignoring TJ completely.

"You need to talk to her. It's important to keep the lines of communication open." TJ advises. Luke just glares at him from underneath the crib.

"I am so sorry, big brother." Liz says gently, ignoring her husband as well.

"Sorry?! Don't be sorry for me. I'm fine. I couldn't care less." Luke snorts, while murderously wrenching a bolt.

"Get real!" TJ snaps back. "You don't look fine. I didn't just ride in on a load of turnips." Interestingly, TJ speaks with a slight Texas drawl.

"What?! Does he have to be here?"

"TJ? Yeah." Liz replies.

"She's just standing there, all smiles, talking to April like it's nothing and the whole time she's engaged to Chr . . .to that asshole. She asked me how I'm doing, not as good as she is apparently. Not that I care, it is the principle of the thing, I don't care." The whole time Luke is speaking the crib is shaking more and more violently.

"Yeah, so you said." Liz humors her brother, concerned both for Luke and for the future of her baby's crib.

TJ's only concern was keeping it real. "How's that working for you? You can't change what you don't acknowledge."

"Shut up, TJ! What is with him?!"

"He's been watching a lot of Dr. Phil. He thinks it will help him be a better father. I think it's sweet."

"Make it stop."

TJ continues. "This relationship needs a hero. Yes, she's made some mistakes and you have every right to be angry, but no matter how flat you make a pancake it has two sides to it. You have to ask yourself, do you want to be right or do you want to be happy? Choose happy and you're gonna feel like John Wayne with a brand new six shooter.

With a loud snap the socket wrench breaks in Luke very angry hand. Luke jumps up from the floor and advances on TJ to possibly end his life.

Liz steps in between them just in time. " I think what really makes you angry is a crazy as it sounds TJ has a point."

"The wrench is broken. I'll be back." Luke storms out the room and out of the house.

"Luke!"
